When do you typically get on in the morning? It looks like today it was about 1030 your time, 0730 my time. If so, I can probably do a morning mission before I start working from home (we are now under shelter in place for the next three weeks). I might be able to pop over lunch too for another. My wife needs my computer on Mondays but I think I could theoretically do one or both of those during the rest of the week.

I wonder if somebody would like some evening sessions too, I'm working all day and have some time at nights (US time zones).

I got a brother in central time setup. Trying to convince some fellow cousins in eastern time to get setup too. So potentially! I know ShoGun is central too but I think he is typically done for the day by mid afternoon but he might pop back on occasionally if we get an evening group going too.

Shogun and I are at GR right now

I will join your session in few minutes

Sadly not gonna make it on for a lunch fly today. Hope it is a good time!

Housebound but happy at GameRanger. Come and join us

We had an enjoyable and useful session today testing the multiplayer scripts for Axis missions in the SpanishTheatre.
Many thanks Shogun and CaptJ


Here CaptJ had successfully nursed his smoking plane back to an airfield

We will be flying again shortly, but this morning I worked on resolving the ini file problems that we encountered.
Some were caused by the script reader writing to the ini file, and others by the eaw.exe which also writes to the ini file.
Consequently there is a patch with the old and new-map exes, and a script reader:
March 26th reader and exes

The new script reader has a button which lets you load a good "eaw.ini" file if the current one goes wonky.
For this to be used you need a "BackupIni" folder with a good "eaw.ini" file in it

We are at GameRanger now testing the new script reader and the new exes

Hi Jelly, these zipped exe's are getting flag as a virus threat. Can you look into this issue please?

I use AVG and according to AVG they are clean. They are also scanned at MediaFire and they are clean.
However, windows defender is not too sure about the 7-zips and gives a warning.
AVG sometimes goes berserk and puts the eaw.exe in quarantine.
It appears to be a "false positive" but to stop it from happening again have to make the UAW160 folder an exception for AVG.
Scanning the 7-zips and the UAW160 folder gives a clean bill of health, so it is all rather strange.

Today's adventures of CaptJ:





Coming back to finish him off


We will be playing again later

Some good screenshots! Thanks MrJelly!

We have switched to daylight saving in France, and I am about to open a room at GR if anyone wants a game

I am at GR with a room open

Theatre: 04-Moggy's IRAQ 1941 (beta)
PS: 35-Moggy's Iraq Planeset

Good games, but bedtime for me

GR is open again

......and once more into the breach

Game on again

Wonder who was flying this
